Christodora is proud to be honored as a “HI Impact” Awardee! Our students show exceptional growth in key indicators such as social skills, learning strategies, self-regulation and positive/leadership identity — the Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) outcomes that are now widely understood by leading scholars across the country as the best predictor of success in school, work, and life. Algorhythm, a leader in youth development program evaluation, made the announcement at the 2nd Annual “State of Youth Development” Symposium in New York City on April 18, 2018. The symposium was co-hosted by Youth INC, Algorhythm, Youth Development Institute (YDI) and the City University of New York School of Professional Studies. Algorhythm plans to publish case studies that highlight Christodora’s and other awardees’ “best practices.”

Christodora was a part of the initial group that helped Agorhythm create this cutting-edge youth development learning system which is now in use across 30 states by over 260 programs and 10,000 youth.

The Youth Development Impact Learning System measures and reports on six social and emotional learning capacities. These outcomes have been proven to contribute to longer-term gains such as thriving, decreased risk-taking behaviors, and increased academics. If you are moving the needle on these social-emotional outcomes, you can feel confident that your program is contributing to young people’s long-term success.

Self-Management: A youth’s ability to make choices, take positive risks and persist through life’s challenges.

Contribution: A youth’s capacity to give energy and time to help their family, community and society.

Academic Self-Efficacy: A youth’s motivation and confidence in their academic performance.

Social Skills: A youth’s ability to take others’ perspectives into consideration, as well as express caring and empathy.

Positive Identity: A youth’s internal sense of positive self-worth and self-efficacy as they explore who they are.

Social Capital: A youth’s positive bonds with people who can provide advice, counsel and access to what they need to succeed.

My Fair Lady returns in a gorgeous new production from Producer Lincoln Center Theater and Director Bartlett Sher won Tonys for their revivals of South Pacific and The King And I, so this highly-anticipated star of the spring season is selling out quickly. The cast features Lauren Ambrose (of HBO’s Six Feet Under), and luminaries of the British stage Harry Haddon-Paton (of Downton Abbey and The Crown, making his NY stage debut), and Dame Diana Rigg (recently of HBO’s Game of Thrones and PBS’ VIctoria). Choreography is by Christopher Gatelli, Tony-winner for Newsies.

Invite your fair lady (or gentleman) and treat your eyes and ears to Lerner & Loewe’s timeless story and wonderful score, including “I Could Have Danced All Night”, Wouldn’t It Be Loverly” and “On the Street Where You Live.”

After the show, “we’ll have a whopper, pull out the stopper…” Join us across the street at “the pub” to raise a glass with friends!

Reception will follow at P.J. Clarke’s.

You can help to make a first-time wilderness camp experience a reality for motivated students from under-resourced backgrounds in New York City. Every purchase includes a tax-deductible contribution.

100% of net proceeds will support scholarships to Christodora’s Nature, Learning, Leadership programs.
